Which polynomial function f(x) has a leading coefficient of 1, roots –4, 2, and 9 with multiplicity 1, and root –5 with multiplicity 3?
f(x) = 3(x + 5)(x + 4)(x – 2)(x – 9)
f(x) = 3(x – 5)(x – 4)(x + 2)(x + 9)
f(x) = (x + 5)(x + 5)(x + 5)(x + 4)(x – 2)(x – 9)
f(x) = (x – 5)(x – 5)(x – 5)(x – 4)(x + 2)(x + 9)

The required polynomial function is .

Further explanation:

From the given problem, it is observed that for the required function there are 6 roots which are and . It is possible only for the functions or .

Since, the coefficients of all for both the function is 1, the leading coefficient of both the function is 1.

The roots of the polynomial function is obtained as follows:

Solution 1:

Solution 2:

Solution 3:

Solution 4:

Therefore, the zeros of the polynomial function are and .

Thus, the required polynomial function is .
